Perhaps you need to deal with your fears and try meds, or at least discuss this option with your doctor, do some reading, etc. Depression is a very challenging thing to do battle with, and to not be open to anything that might help really makes no sense, unless you're willing to just deal with whatever comes. While meds don't work for everyone, they do help many people. Best of luck......
